Jeremiah 46
1 The LORD’s word which came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the nations.
Ma e wach Jehova Nyasaye mane obirone janabi Jeremia kuom ogendini:
2 Of Egypt: concerning the army of Pharaoh Necoh king of Egypt, which was by the river Euphrates in Carchemish, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon struck in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah.
Kuom Misri: Ma e ote ne jolwenj Farao Neko ruodh Misri, mane oloo Karkemish e Aora mar Yufrate gi Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon e higa mar angʼwen mar Jehoyakim wuod Josia ruodh Juda:
3 “Prepare the buckler and shield, and draw near to battle!
“Ikuru okumba magu, madongo kod matindo, kendo uwuog udhi e kedo!
4 Harness the horses, and get up, you horsemen, and stand up with your helmets. Polish the spears, put on the coats of mail.
Gauru farese, idhuru farese! Kawuru kereu kurwako oguteu mag lweny! Piaguru tongeu, rwakuru okumba mau!
5 Why have I seen it? They are dismayed and are turned backward. Their mighty ones are beaten down, have fled in haste, and do not look back. Terror is on every side,” says the LORD.
En angʼo ma aneno? Kihondko ogoyogi, kendo giringo ka gia kar lweny nikech thuondi mag-gi mag lweny oselo. Giringo ka luoro omakogi ma ok gingʼi ngʼegi, kendo gin-gi luoro malich koni gi koni,” Jehova Nyasaye wacho.
6 “Do not let the swift flee away, nor the mighty man escape. In the north by the river Euphrates they have stumbled and fallen.
“Joma yot ok nyal ringo kata joma otegno ok nyal tony. E yo nyandwat but Aora Yufrate gichwanyore kendo gipodho.
7 “Who is this who rises up like the Nile, like rivers whose waters surge?
“Ma en ngʼa magingore ka aora Nael kendo mana ka aore ma pigegi bubni?
8 Egypt rises up like the Nile, like rivers whose waters surge. He says, ‘I will rise up. I will cover the earth. I will destroy cities and its inhabitants.’
Misri bubni ka aora Nael kendo mana ka aore ma pigegi bubni. Owacho ni, ‘Abiro gingora kendo anapongʼ piny; anaketh mier madongo kod ji modakie.’
9 Go up, you horses! Rage, you chariots! Let the mighty men go out: Cush and Put, who handle the shield; and the Ludim, who handle and bend the bow.
Wuoguru, yaye farese! Yaye, un joriemb geche, riembgiuru matek! Dhiuru nyime, yaye un jolweny machwo moa Kush, gi Put motingʼo okumbini, kaachiel gi chwo Lidia maywayo atungʼ.
10 For that day is of the Lord, GOD of Armies, a day of vengeance, that he may avenge himself of his adversaries. The sword will devour and be satiated, and will drink its fill of their blood; for the Lord, GOD of Armies, has a sacrifice in the north country by the river Euphrates.
To odiechiengno en mar Ruoth, Jehova Nyasaye Maratego ma en odiechiengʼ, ma ochuloe kuor ni wasike. Ligangla noneki nyaka owinj ni orome, kendo nyaka otiek riyo mare gi remo. Nimar Ruoth, Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, nochiw misango e piny mantie yo nyandwat but Aora Yufrate.
11 Go up into Gilead, and take balm, virgin daughter of Egypt. You use many medicines in vain. There is no healing for you.
“Dhiyo nyaka Gilead kendo imany yath, yaye Nyar Misri Mangili. To kata obedo ni imedo manyo yedhe to imenyo kayiem kendo ok inichangi.
12 The nations have heard of your shame, and the earth is full of your cry; for the mighty man has stumbled against the mighty, they both fall together.”
Ogendini nowinj wichkuot momaki; ywakni nopongʼ piny. Jolweny nochwanyre kuom moro ka moro; giduto ginipodhi kanyakla.”
13 The word that the LORD spoke to Jeremiah the prophet, how that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon should come and strike the land of Egypt:
Ma e ote mane Jehova Nyasaye owachone Jeremia janabi kuom biro Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon mondo omonj Misri:
14 “Declare in Egypt, publish in Migdol, and publish in Memphis and in Tahpanhes; say, ‘Stand up, and prepare, for the sword has devoured around you.’
“Land wachni e piny Misri, kendo igo milome e Migdol; Memfis gi Tapanhes ni: ‘Kawuru kereu kendo ikreuru, nimar ligangla nego jogo molwori.’
15 Why are your strong ones swept away? They did not stand, because the LORD pushed them.
En angʼo momiyo jolweny magu opie piny? Ok ginyal chungʼ, nimar Jehova Nyasaye nolwargi piny.
16 He made many to stumble. Yes, they fell on one another. They said, ‘Arise! Let’s go again to our own people, and to the land of our birth, from the oppressing sword.’
Ginichwanyre moluwore oluwore; giniluowre kuom jowetegi. Giniwachi ni, ‘Aa malo, wadog ir jowa wawegi; kendo e pinywa owuon, mabor gi ligangla mar joma thiro ji.’
17 They cried there, ‘Pharaoh king of Egypt is but a noise; he has let the appointed time pass by.’
E kanyono giniwach ni, ‘Farao ruodh Misri en mana jakoko matek, nikech thuolo mane en-go nobaye.’”
18 “As I live,” says the King, whose name is the LORD of Armies, “surely like Tabor among the mountains, and like Carmel by the sea, so he will come.
Ruoth wacho niya, “Akwongʼora gi nyinga awuon, ma en Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ngʼato achiel nobi machalo gi Tabor e dier gode, kata ka Got Karmel mantie but nam.
19 You daughter who dwells in Egypt, furnish yourself to go into captivity; for Memphis will become a desolation, and will be burned up, without inhabitant.
Pang gigi mar dhiyoe twech, un joma odak Misri, nimar Memfis nowe gunda, kendo tieke chuth maonge ngʼama nodagie.”
20 “Egypt is a very beautiful heifer; but destruction out of the north has come. It has come.
“Misri en nyaroya maber neno, to kalabugo birone koa yo nyandwat.
21 Also her hired men in the middle of her are like calves of the stall, for they also are turned back. They have fled away together. They did not stand, for the day of their calamity has come on them, the time of their visitation.
Jolweny mondiki chal gi nyiroye machwe. Gin bende ginilokre kendo giring kanyakla, ok giniriti, nimar odiechiengʼ mar masira biro kuomgi, kinde margi mar kum.
22 Its sound will go like the serpent, for they will march with an army, and come against her with axes, as wood cutters.
Misri nokudhi ka thuol maringo ka jasigu masudo machiegni gi teko; giniked kode gi ledhi, mana ka chwo matongʼo yiende.”
23 They will cut down her forest,” says the LORD, “though it cannot be searched; because they are more than the locusts, and are innumerable.
Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Ginibet bungu mare, kata obedo ni oyugno kamano. Gingʼeny moloyo dede, ok nyal kwan-gi.
24 The daughter of Egypt will be disappointed; she will be delivered into the hand of the people of the north.”
Nyar Misri nomi wichkuot, kendo nochiwe ne jogo moa yo nyandwat.”
25 The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says: “Behold, I will punish Amon of No, and Pharaoh, and Egypt, with her gods and her kings, even Pharaoh, and those who trust in him.
Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho niya, “Achiegni kelo kum kuom Amon ma nyasach Thebes, kuom Farao, kuom Misri gi nyisechene kod ruodhi mage, kod jogo mogeno kuom Farao.
26 I will deliver them into the hand of those who seek their lives, and into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of his servants. Afterwards it will be inhabited, as in the days of old,” says the LORD.
Anachiwgi ne jogo madwaro ngimagi, ne Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon gi jotende. To kata kamano ji nodhi nyime dak Misri kaka chon,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
27 “But do not you be afraid, Jacob my servant. Do not be dismayed, Israel; for, behold, I will save you from afar, and your offspring from the land of their captivity. Jacob will return, and will be quiet and at ease. No one will make him afraid.
“Kik iluor; yaye jatichna Jakobo; bende kik ibwogi, yaye Israel. Adiera abiro resi e piny mabor, kaachiel gi nyikwayi e piny mane otergie twech. Jakobo nodhi nyime ka nigi kwe gi dak maonge luoro, kendo onge ngʼama nobwoge.
28 Do not be afraid, O Jacob my servant,” says the LORD, “for I am with you; for I will make a full end of all the nations where I have driven you, but I will not make a full end of you, but I will correct you in measure, and will in no way leave you unpunished.”
Kik iluor, yaye Jakobo jatichna, nimar an kodi. Kata obedo ni atieko ogendini duto ma asekeyou e diergi, ok anatieku chuth. Anakumu to mana gi bura makare; ok anaweu ngangʼ ma ok akumou,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
